Going To The Beach? Watch Your Feet

Jaws? A piker. Get ready for this nightmare at the beach
These frightening creatures may look like enormous woodlice, but are actually ancient Isopods that live deep under the waves.
The spooky one foot long Giant Isopods live up to 6,000ft down on the seabed where there is no light.
They survive in the pitch black and cold they survive by feasting on dead and decaying fish and other marine animals.
You’ve seen those little sand lice thingies digging in the sand at the beach, right? But….
Hard to believe global warming hasn’t killed them all off. Anyhow, science is cool. And they would probably make a good horror movie.
